This patch makes crypto_alloc_base() return proper return value.
- If kzalloc() failure happens within __crypto_alloc_tfm(),
crypto_alloc_base() returns NULL. But crypto_alloc_base()
is supposed to return error code as pointer. So this patch
makes it return -ENOMEM in that case.
- crypto_alloc_base() is suppose to return -EINTR, if it is
interrupted by signal. But it may not return -EINTR.
